The long answer is that I am one of those people that is constantly reviewing where I am in life and where I would like to be, and changing things around accordingly. In four years of university I've studied journalism, switched to graphic design, left the country, and returned to finish a degree in product design. Now that I'm near the end of all this, I've realized a few things about myself and my inspirations that shape my view on design..<br />
<br />
<b>1. I love making things.</b> drawings, books, posters, paintings, packaging, products, gifts, fancy dinners, sculptures etc. Doesn't really matter what it is, I just like being the creator.<br />
<b> </b><br />
<b>2. I ultimately care more about people than "stuff."</b> Meaning, whatever it is I'm making, the main focus is always the user. I'm always fascinated and/or frustrated with user behavior, cultural norms, and the psychology behind our consumerist culture. <br />
<br />
<b>3. My favorite designs are products that eliminate the need for a lot of other things</b>. Even though I don't yet own an iPhone, I completely recognize its value as a product that eliminates a whole bag full of stuff. Also that pair of shoes that seriously DOES go with everything. Keeping it simple. <br />
<br />
<b>Naturally, my main inspirations and influences are people who do this well</b>, <b>people that design awesome products that simplify daily life.</b> They design an entire experience, as opposed to making more useless "stuff" to throw on the garbage heap. I also admire those who successfully keep personal life and leisure a first priority, no matter how stressed or busy they are at work.<br />
<br />

Nothing kills a design like feeling unhappy and disconnected. While artists and musicians can make a living off being miserable, no one is waking up in the morning saying "I hate my life, I hate my job, lets go make some great prototypes.." So, however vague it may sound, that's my vision for my future. I don't know exactly what I want to do professionally, but I do know that I want to remain open to new experiences and to be able to put my personal life first, trusting that the rest will follow.<br />
<b><br /></b><br />
<b>If I had to sum myself up in 6 words, these might do..</b><br />
- observant<br />
- introspective<br />
- empathetic<br />
- curious<br />
- creative<br />
- detail obsessed<br />
